PREFACE. 



The object of this little volume is to present 
in the most convenient form an adequate variety 
of illustrations of various phases of the con- 
struction of extemporaneous formulas, correct 
and incorrect, for purposes of study. 

The selected examples contained in this book 
will be found to afford a far more complete and 
effective assortment than any prescription files, 
however large, can possibly furnish. 

The 1,500 Prescriptions include correct 
formulas and prescriptions, Latinic and Eng- 
lish, in metric terms as well as in the customary 
weights and measures, unabbreviated and 
abbreviated, covering all the usual forms of 
exhibition and numerous kinds of medicinal 
substances, new and old. 

There are prescriptions for species, powders, 
triturations, confections, electuaries, troches, 
masses, pills, liquid preparations for internal 
use, cataplasms, ointments, cerates, plasters, 
liniments, lotions, injections, and other forms 
of administration or application of medicines, of 
the greatest variety of materials, and illustrating 
numerous phases of the details of manipulation. 

There are also many faulty, incomplete, in- 
correct, dangerous, incompatible, and even im- 
possible prescriptions. Nearly all of these have 
iii 



IV PREFACE. 

been reproduced from prescription files, journals, 
examination papers, books and formularies, and 
are bona fide prescriptions written by physicians 
in the regular course of their medical practice. 
The original authors can not be held responsible 
for the many errors which have been introduced 
by compilers and printers, and the large num- 
ber of incorrect prescriptions in this collection 
should not cause any apprehension, for they are 
certainly not common. 

In studying and criticizing these prescrip- 
tions the student should carefully examine 
into: — 

1. The form, construction, nomenclature, 
orthography and abbreviations. 

2. The intent of the prescriber; any ambi- 
guities, uncertainties, omissions, accidental trans- 
position of quantities, " slips of the pen," etc. 

3. Physical compatibilty of the ingredients; 
kind and quantity of excipients, solvents, etc. 

4. Chemical compatibility; is any chemical 
reaction likely to take place ? and, if so, is it one 
that the prescriber had in view? Formation of 
new compounds, harmful or not, precipitations, 
gelatinization, generation of gaseous products, 
explosive mixtures, slow chemical changes, etc. 

5. Doses; single and daily; whether safe or 
not, according to age of the patient, etc. 

6. Practicability of the directions as to the 
mode of dispensing; can the materials and 
proportions prescribed be made to produce such 
a preparation as the prescription calls for, 



PREFACE. V 

whether pills, powders, ointment, suppositories, 
mixture, or other specified form. 

7. Mode of manipulation; how shall the pre- 
scription be dispensed? Order and manner in 
which the ingredients should be combined; 
details of manipulation; are any modifications 
or additions pharmaceutical^ necessary and 
therapeutically unobjectionable? 

8. Directions for using the medicine. Are 
they safe and probably correct and in harmony 
with the character of the medicine? 

In order to make the collection as complete 
as practicable I have constructed and inserted 
additional prescriptions wherever it seemed 
necessary for the purpose of supplying good 
examples of points not illustrated by the for- 
mulas and prescriptions accessible to me. 

Students using this book, who have not 
studied latinic pharmaceutical nomenclature, 
will find what is necessary for that purpose 
contained in my "Pharmaceutical Problems 
and Exercises."

Course of Home Study in Pharmacy .... 

In one bound book for $3.00. This book of First Lessons in the Study of 
Pharmacy has been prepared expressly for the benefit of Drug Clerks, 
those learning the Drug Business, Prospective College Students of 
Pharmacy, those preparing for State Board Examinations, and all who 
desire to pursue a systematic course of Home Beading in Pharmacy 
Chemistry and Materia Medica. By Professor OSCAE OLDBEKG of the 
School of Pharmacy of Northwestern University, ("Illinois College of 
Pharmacy"); author of "Manual of Weights and Measures," "Laboratory 
Manual of Pharmaceutical Chemistry," "1,500 Prescriptions," and other 
Pharmaceutical Works; Member of the Committee of Bevision and Pub- 
lication of the Pharmacopoeia of the United States (1880-1900), etc. 

It is a good-sized book of 540 pages, 8vo, well printed and 
snbstantially bound in cloth, illustrated with over 150 cuts. 

Thousands are already reading this book, and it should be 

FOUND IN EVERY DEUG STOEE. 

Employers who desire to encourage their Clerks and 
Apprentices can do so in an effective manner by allowing them 
reasonable time for useful study, and they would doubtless find 
that their employes will render more intelligent and valuable 
service as a direct consequence. 

This First Reader in Pharmacy contains precisely what every 
student in pharmacy must read before he reads other things. To 
attempt a course of home reading without a book specially pre- 
pared for that purpose cannot but prove both laborious and 
fruitless. 

The Registered Pharmacist says: "This is the book of books 
for the beginner in the study of pharmacy. We advise all who 
want to enter upon a course of study in pharmacy, whether at a 
college or in the store, to begin with this excellent work. Al- 
though written for beginrers, and in a remarkably clear and 
simple style, it contains a great deal more information than one 
would suppose could be so well presented within the space of six 
hundred pages. The author has succeeded admirably in his gen- 
eralizations as well as in the definitions and illustrations given. 
Readers of this book will, if they have intelligence and read 
attentively, acquire an exceptionally good idea of the nature of 
the sciences treated, as well as a correct knowledge of the most 
important facts and theories which must form the basis of a 
right pharmaceutical education. If the student cannot learn 
from this book, he cannot learn at all." 



Prof. Joseph P. Remington, of the Philadelphia College of 
Pharmacy, says: "The book will be of great help to those for 
whom it has been designed." 

Prof. Albert B. Prescott, Dean of the Department of Phar- 
macy of Michigan University: "It is of good proportions, is 
well adapted to its uses, and ought to be largely used." 

Prof. James M. Good, of the St. Louis College of Pharmacy: 
"That it fills a long felt want there is no question. It fills it well 
also, showing throughout abundant evidence of thoroughness 
and painstaking care. * * * The explanations of the rather 
difficult science of chemistry seem to me to be clear and easy to 
comprehend." 

The New England Druggist: "Prof. Oldberg's 'Home Study 
in Pharmacy' is a most useful and valuable publication, not 
alone for the beginner in the art of pharmacy, but it should be 
found upon the shelves of even those of long service in it. Un- 
like many of our publications, it is not a reprint of the Pharma- 
copoeia, but its matter is original; or, if not original, it is pre- 
sented in a new and fresh light that makes even trite things 
acquire juvenility and interest. It is not too much to say that 
among the works designed for the study of pharmacy the claims 
of this book for recognition must be conceded ; for its explana- 
tions are so clear and its instructions so complete that, with the 
Pharmacopoeia to accompany it, one hardly needs another book 
to fit him to take rank in his profession. The plan of organiz- 
ing classes of the readers or students of the book offers great 
advantages to those in possesion of it, for by this means things 
not clearly understood may be made plain by a competent in- 
structor. For the true interests of Pharmacy we hope to see this 
book in the hands of every student of the art" 

Oldberg's Home Study in Pharmacy is sold by Wholesale 
Druggists and Booksellers, but if your Bookseller or Wholesale 
Druggist should not have it, you can get it promptly by mail 
from the publishers, who will send it (postage prepaid by them) to 
any address, upon receipt of price, which is invariably $3.00 net. 

In ordering the book from Wholesale Druggists or your Book- 
sellers, inform them of the name and address of the Publishers.

Pharmaceutical and Chemical Problems and 
Exercises, with Rules and Explanations . . 

By OSCAR OLDBERG, Ph.D., Professor of Pharmacy; Northwestern 

University. 

SECOND EDITION; REVISED AND ENLARGED. 

One Volume, 12mo. Cloth. $1.50, net. Interleaved, $2.00. 

Intended as an Aid to Students, Teachers and Examiners. 



Containing Several Thousand Problems and Exercises in Weights and 
Measures, The Metric System, Specific Weight and Volume, Percentage 
and Proportion, Dilution, Fortification, Mixing, "Parts by Weight," 
Thermometers, Hydrometers, Chemical Notation, Synthetical and Ana- 
lytical Problems and Reactions, and Latinic Nomenclature. 



"It is an exercise book, with nothing to learn by rote or cram. 
iVe can therefore most heartily recommend it, especially for those 
vho have in prospect an examination before a pharmacy board, 
'.t contains questions and problems, the answers to which must 
>e sought in their proper place, or in the majority of cases 
worked out — there is no key given and there should not be. The 
>xercises cover the subjects of weights and measures, percentages 
md proportions, specific weight and specific volume, hydrometer 
md thermometer scales, chemical symbols and formulae, atomic 
md molecular weight, chemical equations, calculations of pro- 
Luct, materials required, etc., in synthetical operations, and, 
astly, a unique feature of the work, drill in pharmaceutical 
lomenclature, Latin and English. The book is one that meets a 
eal want; even the graduate in pharmacy may find its exercises 
trofitable.' 1 '' — Pharmaceutical Era. 

"It is intended for the use of teachers and students, either 
or class work or for those who desire to prove, by solving in 
writing practical exercises, the knowledge obtained from study 
>n their own accord. For the latter purpose the collection is 
pell adapted, and decidedly preferable to similar compilations, 
sontaining the answers appended to the questions." — The West- 
rn Druggist. 

"This is an excellent little book, and will be of great service 
o students, if they will carefully work out the answers and the 
olutions of the problems. The selection of questions is very 
udicious and covers the ground very effectively, so far as the 
jurriculum of a school of pharmacy extends." — The American 
Druggist.
